Thanks. I think Matt in NJ makes some good points. My wife, who is not pro-life but is down-the-line Republican in almost every other way, likes the Mittster. On the other hand, I know that if he were the nominee-—coming from a Southern Baptist background as I did-—he would lose a significant chunk of the Baptist/conservative vote, just because he’s a Mormon.

I've always thought that. AND I've always thought that was one of Newt's fatal flaws.
